I'm seeking the collective wisdom of this forum.I am planning to take a day off work in the next few weeks to take my mother out and about in Singapore.I have considered activities such as a visit to Gardens by the Bay, eating at a nice restaurant etc... but these seem rather trite. Hence I would be grateful if you folks could share with me fresh ideas of activities and fantastic eateries that I could take her to.

It depends on her fitness level and interest. If she is fit, I would love to recommend to her a cycling trip in Ubin. Is she loves chaotic markets, Bugis market might fit the bill. If she is into cultural stuff, the standard Little India, Kampung Glam and Chinatown trip will do.

You also find (Googling) several suggested itineraries within travel articles. Like, 'What to do with 1/3/5... days in Singapore'.

They've also been occasionally linked. I forget the precise sources now, but Time out, TripAdvisor and Lonely Planet are good bets. The latter definitely have these within their 'city-break' guides. So as a first step I'd check their website, and then the others.
